This may seem elementary, but I can't seem to successfully google how to accomplish this. I've got a sign that has rounded conrers using alpha, but it appears as two sided. This would be fine if the second side was an alternate image that properly would back up the image. Code: textures/mall99/mall_directions_2 { surfaceparm nonsolid surfaceparm nonopaque surfaceparm playerclip surfaceparm monsterclip q3map_alphashadow cull disable { map textures/mall99/mall_directions_2 alphaFunc GE128 blendFunc GL_SRC_ALPHA GL_ZERO depthWrite } { map $lightmap blendFunc GL_ONE GL_ZERO depthFunc equal } { map textures/mall99/mall_directions_2 blendFunc GL_DST_COLOR GL_ZERO depthFunc equal } } The other image is textures/mall99/mall_directions_2b

Quote: Jason Heppler says: 3.2 cull Every surface of a polygon has two sides, a front and a back. Typically, we only see the front or "out" side. For example, a solid block you only show the front side. In many applications we see both. For example, in water, you can see both front and a back. The same is true for things like grates and screens. To "cull" means to remove. The value parameter determines the type of face culling to apply. The default value is cull front if this keyword is not specified. However for items that should be inverted then the value back should be used. To disable culling, the value disable or none should be used. Only one cull instruction can be set for the shader. 3.2.1 cull front The front or "outside" of the polygon is not drawn in the world. This is the default value. It is used if the keyword "cull" appears in the content instructions without a value or if the keyword cull does not appear at all in the shader. 3.2.2 cull back Cull back removes the back or "inside" of a polygon from being drawn in the world. 3.2.3 cull disable, cull none Neither side of the polygon is removed. Both sides are drawn in the game. Very useful for making panels or barriers that have no depth, such as grates, screens, metal wire fences and so on and for liquid volumes that the player can see from within. Also used for energy fields, sprites, and weapon effects (e.g.; plasma). http://www.heppler.com/shader/shader/section3.htm edited on Feb. 28, 2009 04:35 pm by exitof99
